Does anyone know what the salty like stuff is that comes out of your skin in post scabies?

I beleive this is likely scabies eggs or the debris from the dead scabies mite, your skin will constantly surface out the debris, this is what is causing the allergic reaction beneath your skin. In some cases this could last 2 months - 2years, it really depends on how quickly you discovered and start treating your scabies. For everyone dealing with scabies you are going to need some good exfoliator creams to surface the debris out of your skin, this will be your last stage of scabies which is referred to as post scabies. I would also get lots of cocoa butter it is great.

Yes sir, It is either scabies mites debris or it could be scabies eggs, I beleive if the colour of the salt grain stuff is clear or whitish than it is likely an egg. I remember from my bouth with scabies during post scabies I would get the same type of stuff come out from under my skin as I rubbed my skin in circular motions. Try treating your scabies 5-7 days after the first treatment to guarantee a complete kill, and if your using natural scabies remedies you should treat on and off for a week or so. Treating scabies naturally will be better for your skin than treating with chemicals such as Kwelleda P or Nix, and do not treat with Lindane! It has been banned in over 40 countries.

Correct! If the salty like crystals are clear in colour they are most likely scabies eggs, if they are like brownish or redish in colour they are likely debris from scabies or the dead mites themselves. When exfoliating your skin you should do it in a circular motion as you have more chance of removing stuff like this without irritating or breaking the skin which would lead to more lessions possibly. Your skin is very sensitive in post scabies and shouldn't be irritated to much.

Yeah I had these on my shoulder area, if you rub in circular motions they will come out from the skin sometimes clear salty looking sometimes brown in colour. I asuming like you pointed out this is the scabies debris which would make alot of sense. This is probably why my skin is so itchy.
Thanks

This can happen for months even years after scabies and is usually happens alot in post scabies as you are moisturizing your skin in circular motion the debris starts to ease out gently. This is the dead mites and yes their debris and its a regular scabies trait. I had scabies for months and it took me months for my skin to repair itself with lots of sulphur creams and moisturizers.

I have also noticed a salt like debris and look at it with a pocket microscope. It looks like salt. I use baking soda to exfoliate my skin. 3 Parts baking soda, one part water.

It is likely dead scabies remnants such as the dead scabies themselves or fecal matter. If you use vaseline oil in areas without bumps or open lesions you can rub it in circular motions and it will help release the salt like stuff easier. In some cases they may even be scabies eggs. I would suggest using sulfur soaps you can get online as they contain real sulfur which can kill any scabies still lingering plus their eggs and the sulfur also helps healing your skin and bringing it back to normal as it is likely in bad shape from the damage the scabies did plus treatments. You can get scabies creams and soaps here that contain real sulfur made specifically for scabies. Remember to never over moisturize your skin especially in areas with open lesions as it will just make those areas worse. You can also try bathing nightly with about 1 full cup of epsom salts as they cut off the oxygen supply to your body and also they help open your pores and heal your skin as they contain sulfats. Scabies creams and soaps here that contain real sulfur made specifically for scabies. Hope this helps!

You want to continue using both the sulfur soaps and the creams. It sounds like you have a more advanced case so sulfur is going to be the treatment of choice. I would concentrate on areas where the skin is built up more and has thick layers to it. Remember that scabies create this toxic layer of skin to protect them and their eggs this is why sulfur is good because it penetrates the skin well.
